I always have had wonderful memories of Alex and Lauren when they were younger. What astonishing kids you have and how very very sad I am to hear that Alex has passed.
He was funny, sweet, intuitive, smart, friendly, talented, and kind. I had the pleasure of caring for him when he was 11 yrs old and knew then he was bound for greatness.

We are so sorry to hear of Alex. A great kid- fast skater, knew how to put the puck in the net, and fun on any team. The years go by quickly- our deepest sympathy to your family.

Jill, Mike, and Lauren,
Alex was a unique and strong child. So unique, perhaps that God needed him more than we did. I had him in school for one year in Shaker Heights and have thought about him often. how sad I was to read about his passing in the Plain Dealer. We will treasure the memories of this outstanding child and pray for your comfort. He definitely impacted MY life.

Mike, Jill and Lauren,
What a tragic loss! I think fondly of Dan and Alex playing at the Music Settlement and continuing on to Shaker Hockey. I think often of the friendship they had. I, too, lost friends when you guys moved away. I wish I could offer some words of comfort. You are in our thoughts.
